Hydraulic Supply Company expands into Monterrey, Mexico

Hydraulic Supply Company announced the opening of its first international Eaton Aeroquip retail store, under the name HSC Hydraulics de Mexico, in Monterrey, Mexico.

The new location for HSC, a Sunrise, Florida-based fluid power distributor of hydraulic, pneumatic and industrial products, is slated to open in December 2016.

“Mexico is by far the largest market in Latin America for fluid power products and services. Our ‘Customer First’ philosophy will drive us to service new customers we were unable to reach previously,” said Hydraulic Supply Company president John Serra. “This strategic investment into Monterrey, Mexico builds on the skills and strengths we have acquired from working with many of our Latin American affiliate partners for over a decade. We will continue to work exclusively through our affiliate’s model and strongly support them in other Latin America markets.”

HSC currently provides U.S. distributors and its affiliate partners in 33 Latin American countries with access to Spanish-speaking sales and technical support teams from its Sunrise, Florida, headquarters.

As part of its domestic market growth plan, HSC also opened new locations in South Carolina, North Carolina and Tennessee in the past 18 months, and plans to expand into Alabama in early 2017, plus open additional locations in Florida.
